High dietary ω-6 fatty acids contribute to reduced docosahexaenoic acid in the developing brain and inhibit secondary neurite growth

Abstract Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA, 22:6ω-3) is a major polyunsaturated fatty acid in the brain and is required in large amounts during development. Low levels of DHA in the brain are associated with functional deficits. The ω-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients and their metabolism and incorporat...
